Pathophysiology of COVID-19-associated acute kidney injury
Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2021 Although respiratory failure and hypoxaemia are the main manifestations of COVID-19, kidney involvement is also common. Available evidence supports a number of potential pathophysiological pathways through which acute kidney injury (AKI) can develop in ...

Leveraging Clinical Characteristics for Improved Deep Learning-Based Kidney Tumor Segmentation on CT [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper assesses whether using clinical characteristics in addition to imaging can improve automated segmentation of kidney cancer on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT). A total of 300 kidney cancer patients with contrast-enhanced CT scans and clinical characteristics were included.

Kidney and Kidney Tumour Segmentation in CT Images [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Automatic segmentation of kidney and kidney tumour in Computed Tomography (CT) images is essential, as it uses less time as compared to the current gold standard of manual segmentation. However, many hospitals are still reliant on manual study and segmentation of CT images by medical practitioners because of its higher accuracy.
